Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4 makes cardiovascular magnetic resonance reports easy to understand.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Patients are increasingly using Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4 (GPT-4) to better understand their own radiology findings.

Purpose

To evaluate the performance of GPT-4 in transforming cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) reports into text that is comprehensible to medical laypersons.

Methods

ChatGPT with GPT-4 architecture was used to generate three different explained versions of 20 various CMR reports (n = 60) using the same prompt: "Explain the radiology report in a language understandable to a medical layperson". Two cardiovascular radiologists evaluated understandability, factual correctness, completeness of relevant findings, and lack of potential harm, while 13 medical laypersons evaluated the understandability of the original and the GPT-4 r
